Mangaluru, Jun 24: While workers these days hesitate to get inside a manhole, a corporator boldly got down into one to clear stagnated water. The act has garnered the corporator a lot of praise.

Kadri Kambala ward corporator Manohar Shetty who is otherwise seen among well-dressed corporators is the one who carried out the work.

Rainwater had stagnated in the stormwater drain on Kadri Kambala road causing problems for commuters. The workers had refused to climb down the nearby manhole to solve the problem. Meanwhile, corporator Manohar Shetty got down inside the chamber and explained the problem to the workers. However, even after this, the workers were adamant to not get down the manhole. To provide quick relief for the issue on hand the corporator obtained a set of spare clothes from his residence, went down the chamber himself to clear the trash which was leading to the stagnation of water.

Resolving the problem successfully, corporator Manohar Shetty has become an amazing example of how a people representative should be and can be.
